The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

Revenue increased as the division of labor across sales processes proved effective, while the increase in cost of sales was limited to ¥101 million against a ¥453 million increase in revenue. Meanwhile, selling, general and administrative expenses increased due to growth investments, including higher personnel expenses, stepped-up hiring, preparations for opening new offices and research and development.
